An LTI discrete-time system has frequency response given by
33bz3py.jpg


(a) Use one of the above forms of the frequency response to obtain an equation for the
impulse response h[n] of the system.

(b) From the frequency response, determine the difference equation that is satisfied by
the input x[n] and the output y[n] of the system.

(c) If the input to this system is
x[n]=4+2cos(won) for oo<n<oo,
for what value of wo will the output be of the form
y[n] =A constant
for -00 < n < oo? What is the constant A?


2. The attempt at a solution
(a) i found to be
h[n] = (0.8)^n u[n] + (0.8)^n-2 u[n-2]

Can anyone help me with the rest of the two parts?

I can assist you with the remaining parts of this problem. Let's start with part (b).

To determine the difference equation satisfied by the input x[n] and output y[n], we can use the formula for the frequency response in the form of H(e^jw) = Y(e^jw)/X(e^jw). This means that the output y[n] can be expressed as the input x[n] multiplied by the frequency response H(e^jw).

Therefore, the difference equation can be written as y[n] = h[n]*x[n]. Substituting the frequency response given in the problem, we get y[n] = (0.8)^n u[n] + (0.8)^n-2 u[n-2] * x[n].

Moving on to part (c), we need to determine the value of wo for which the output y[n] will be of the form y[n] = A constant. From the given input x[n], we can see that it is a sinusoidal signal with a frequency of wo. Therefore, we need to find the value of wo for which the frequency response of the system will be zero.

To do this, we can set H(e^jw) = 0 and solve for w. From the given frequency response, we get w = -pi/2. This means that the value of wo that will result in a constant output is wo = pi/2.

Substituting this value of wo in the given input x[n], we get x[n] = 4 + 2cos(pi/2*n) = 4 + 2*(-1)^n.

Therefore, the output y[n] will be a constant for -00 < n < oo, with the value of A = 4.

I hope this helps you with the remaining parts of the problem. Let me know if you have any further questions.
 

1. What is an impulse response of an LTI system?

The impulse response of an LTI (linear time-invariant) system is the output of the system when an impulse input is applied. It represents the system's characteristics and can be used to determine the response of the system to any input signal.

2. How is the impulse response of an LTI system obtained?

The impulse response can be obtained by applying a delta function (an impulse) as the input to the system and measuring the output. This process can be repeated for different values of the input and then plotted to obtain the complete impulse response of the system.

3. What is the frequency response of an LTI system?

The frequency response of an LTI system is the representation of how the system responds to different input frequencies. It is a complex-valued function and can be used to determine the amplitude and phase shift of the output signal at different frequencies.

4. How is the frequency response of an LTI system obtained?

The frequency response can be obtained by taking the Fourier transform of the impulse response of the system. This will give a frequency domain representation of the system's behavior and can be used to analyze its response to different input signals.

5. Why is obtaining the impulse and frequency response of an LTI system important?

Obtaining the impulse and frequency response of an LTI system is important because it allows us to understand and analyze the behavior of the system. It helps in designing and optimizing the system for specific applications and also in predicting the system's response to different input signals. Additionally, it is a fundamental concept in signal processing and control systems.
